"Fantastic Highly Recommend 100% Perfection 💚"

Fantastic to have this & all the other Agatha Christie books in full casts. This is one of my faves to watch on film & is just as good on Audible. John Moffat is perfect & un replaceable as Hercule Poirot. A good professional cast & soundtrack like at the movies makes these 'Classics' to collect & I have ALL of the Agatha Christie audibles in my collection. I wish there were more. 💚
